6. Commissioning
© Festo Didactic 655633 93
One-way flow control valves are used to regulate exhaust air flow rates with double-
acting cylinders. In the reverse direction, air flows through the non-return valve with
full cross-sectional flow.
Uncontrolled supply air and controlled exhaust hold the piston between air cushions
(improves motion, even with load changes).
Prerequisite
– Cylinder is tubed up
– Compressed air supply switched on.
Execution
1. Screw in the restrictors of the one-way flow control valves at first completely and
then loosen again one turn.
2. Start a test run.
3. Slowly open the one-way flow control valves until the desired piston speed is
reached.
Documents
• Data sheets
One-way flow control valve (175056) in the directory English\4_Handling\Data
sheets on the CD-ROM supplied.
• Operating instructions

A visual check must be carried out before each commissioning!
Prior to starting up the station, you will need to check:
• The electrical connections
• The correct installation and condition of the compressed air connections
• The mechanical components for visual defects
(tears, loose connections etc.)
Eliminate any damage detected prior to starting up the station!
